I know. Many people have the same problem.
On the other hand, it gives me the feeling that nobodyโ€™s interested. That can be hard sometimes.

4/4 Of the approximately 40,000 German and Austrian Sinti and Roma who were recorded, over 25,000 were murdered. In total, an estimated 220,000 to 500,000 Sinti and Roma fell victim to the Nazis' racial fanaticism and the genocide systematically planned against them.

3/n in a one-time resistance action after they barricaded themselves in the barracks armed with stones and tools. On the night of August 2nd, 1944, the last 3,000 men, women and children were murdered in the gas chambers and the "gypsy camp" in Auschwitz-Birkenau was dissolved.

2/n Most of the 23,000 inmates in camp section B II e, including over 10,700 from the Old Reich and 2,300 from Austria, died of starvation, disease, abuse and medical experiments. On May 16, 1944, the people living in the "gypsy camp" were initially able to avert their murder

The Auschwitz Decree
1/n
December 16: 1942, Himmler orders that all Sinti and Roma still living in the Reich and in the occupied territories be sent to a concentration camp. Based on this decree, more than 20,000 Sinti and Roma were deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau in March 1943.

Trumpie needs Lebensraum, thatโ€™s for sure.

Did Joseph Geubbels write that? Just curious.

In Mein Kampf, Hitler dedicated a full chapter to outlining the need for the new "living space" for Germany. He claimed that achieving Lebensraum required political will, and that the Nazi movement ought to strive to expand population area for the German people and acquire new sources of foodโ€ฆ

Spoke with Mark Carney to congratulate him on his election.

It was the perfect opportunity to reaffirm the strength of the ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ bond and the many opportunities that lie ahead.

We discussed how to build on the success of CETA and agreed to explore deeper cooperation on defence and economic security.

Why should we not forget the Holocaust?
๐Ÿงต 1/n
Because it was one of the most horrific crimes in human history.
Because it was committed by one of the most advanced countries in the world, disproving the idea that more advanced societies are inherently more moral than less advanced societies.

On May 4, 1940, Rudolf Hรถss was appointed commander of Auschwitz.

Thatโ€™s it.

In 1928 Mรกtyรกs Seiber (born #OTD in 1905) became director of the jazz department at the Hoch Conservatory in Frankfurt offering the first academic jazz courses. It was closed by the Nazis in 1933 so Seiber left Germany eventually settling in London.

And so, the takeover has been completed.
You all should have voted as if your life depended on it.
Now, itโ€™s too late for whining.

Besides, at least on Twitter/X, I got a lot more response. My followers were far more engaged than here on Bluesky.

I did post this one on Bluesky, but all of the footage in this thread was labelled as โ€˜disturbing mediaโ€™. So I removed the whole thread altogether.

Both of course. Iโ€™ve been trying to warn people that democracy should never be taken for granted. Hitler wonโ€™t come back, but someone or something similar was bound to happen again.

4/4 Because it demonstrated the evil of the logical conclusions of racism and eugenics.

3/n Because it demonstrated the dangers of a charismatic, persuasive leader with nearly unlimited power.
Because it demonstrated the inability to placate bullies with small wins, and the urgency of putting them down before they get on a roll.

2/n Because itโ€™s a tangible example of a kind of mistake called sleepwalking into catastrophe, where people were too apathetic or antipathic towards Jews, a threatened minority, and let that minority be pushed to brink of extinction; the crime called genocide was named for the Holocaust.
